In a manner of speaking, that's correct. You'll get a basic default initialization (and inherit the __init__() from your superclass(es) if your new class is derived from another one. You just create your own __init__() if you have something you need to set up, and/or need to call the superclass __init__() in a special way. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
